Where is the mischievous sprite that prevents us from gaining deliberate access to the marvelous device that cognitive scientists imagine?
Electromagnetic radiations are emitted from the sprite and show a low-power wave number spectrum, suggesting that the sprite exhibits a fractal nature.
This is considered to be the origin of explosive sprite generation.
It is also likely that sprites will occur.
In my opinion, this difference provides evidence for the higher astrobiological potential of sprites in comparison with usual lighting.
The dynamics are tightly linked to a complex structure formation such as a streamer and sprite.
Then a complicated branching is suddenly and also explosively triggered, leading to fine net-like structures or sprites.
Even if we take into account the fractal structure of sprites, this is seven or eight orders of magnitude more than the volume of usual lightning.
